just open the hood and remove the plastic raintray cover.
under that you'll see the mechanism and motor for the wipers.
look at the axle on the motor. the bolt probabl has come loose and one stalk has come off.. 5 mins work no diagrams needed.. not much that can go wrong there. esspecially since the other one's still working

the red outlined piece came off and can move freely down, the black outlined piece can be pulled up and down without unscrewing anything.. is my windshield wiper done for? how do i fix? ill try better pics later

Hi i've just had my MOT wiper's worked fine, on the way home started to rain went to put my wipers on and nothing. front wipers don't work, rear wipers don't work and water jets don't work. Any suggestions, i've tried and tested the fuse.

you might want to start your own thread on the topic instead of hijacking someone elses. you will probably get more responses that way.
I'd suggest how you might fix your wipers but I honestly dont know.
